sorry jwischka,

i tried to search but was confused about how can i install xfce4 in micro cause there is no wifi in it.
but i read your thread about xfce4 in non wifi board.
so from that got some idea how to do this.
currently i am installing xfce4.
i will tell you whether it works or not.
Thank you for your help , and please be patience with me cause i am new to this linux thing.
sorry again.

With 256mb of RAM, everything is going to be very slow.

I assume you are using a usb mouse? If so, there are known issues with the micro and USB hubs - are you using one?
